This is the subject everyone is talking about. Yes, we are talking about the acquisition of Activision-Blizzard-King by Microsoft. Because although we’ve been on the subject for over a year, it’s still far from over. At present, only some of the antitrust commissions have approved or rejected it. Brazil and Saudi Arabia were among the first to give the go-ahead, while the FTC and CMA are the ones raising the most hurdles. And in the background, the whole controversy with Sony and its continuous refusals of offers from those of Redmond.
And while Microsoft continues to strengthen its position and approach positions with other companies, such as Nintendo and NVIDIA, the rest of the regulators are beginning to deliver their verdict. And the next to speak would be China.
China would give the green light to the acquisition of Activision by Microsoft
According to a local lawyer, the State Administration of Market Regulation (SAMR for its acronym in English) is on the verge of approving the merger agreement between Activision-Blizzard-King and Microsoft.
For the moment, at the end of writing this news, the SAMR has not yet made its decision public, but it should do so in the next few hours, days at the latest. So, after a release process that had some complications and objections, China will give its positive verdict for the purchase of Activision.
